Seeing Red: Tales of Christmas Street Hell

starbucksholidayguy.jpg
Have you been in a Starbucks since last week? My god. The horror. It is overload and commences the annual and completely craptacular Vancouverite Starbucks Holiday Time Fast.

And to add insult to injury with the smug red cups and overcrowded retail junk, you can check out Itsredagain.com or worse, Cheer Pass Central. The former site, is hosted by some creepy sweater wearing Tradition Keeper. [More via: Ad Freak]

In a related story, I had to go to The Hudson's Bay Company this week. I know what you're thinking. Apparently using your passport as a wallet isn't very cool, nor is not having a shower curtain. But honestly, is it really required to be selling Christmas stuff already? The fact that they call their Christmas area, the 5th floor, "Christmas Street" is totally ridiculous. Oh, and it's November.

Starbucks is the devil. Though I love the conversation I had with my sister bashing Walmart's greed whilst sipping her non fat gingerbread latte for starbucks.
